I had a speeding offence and two bad tyres, I was taken to Court last year April and I was told to pay a fine of £389 and 4 point from my license.

Thanks to everyone that shared that though it was very helpful. At one point I didn’t want to post it but I put my faith in God and I was granted less than a month.
